EasyLanguage to NinjaScript

You will use the IObjectName instead. Like IRay: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt7/iray.htm

I will give that a go.

BackColor is what you need for the background: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG.../backcolor.htm

Thanks.

You need to review the NinjaScript documentation: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG..._reference.htm

ok.

For the TradeStation symbols, can you please confirm you followed the directions at the following link?

Suppose I find my line using:
foreach (IDrawObject draw in DrawObjects )
{
if (draw.DrawType.ToString() == "Ray" & draw.Tag == "TL81" )
{Print (draw.Tag + " " + draw.DrawType ) ; }
}
How do I change the parameters or get them from draw ?

[RobinT]

I am still not getting any data from Tradestation for $ symbols like $spx.x or $vix.x

futures ok.

You would need to cycle through the DrawObjects on the chart, please refer to the information at the following link: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...drawobject.htm

I want to cycle through some (not all) of the objects and I want to know how to get to the object via the tag.

Are you asking how to get the drawing objects from multiple charts or the price values from multiple charts? You will need to expand upon your inquiry further so that I may understand.

I have a chart with two panels and an instrument in each panel. The indicator gets data from panel 1, how do I get data from panel 2?

That does not help me with the chart parameters like backgound color.

Hello RobinT,

Thank you for your patience.

I am looking for a Horizontal line from a start point and extends right as time progresses. I can use:

Drawline (

and set the endtime to DateTime.Now on every bar

is there a way of using DrawExtendedLine ( and have it not extend left as I dont want that.

would I be correct in thinking a Ray does what I want and when I am finished with the line I can convert it into a Drawline (). It says a ray extend in one direction, but it doesn't say which direction.

I would not use DrawExtendedLine or DrawRay for this. I am wondering if a simple negative barsAgo value would not be what you are looking for. For example:

DrawLine("tag", 2, Close[0], -2, Close[0], Color.Black);

I have a number of Rays, each with its own unique tag, "TL01", "TL99" etc. Once these are plotted how do I get and change the parameters using the tag. I want to get the Startdate and I want to change the color.

also if I have multiple charts, how do I get data from multiple data streams.

Where can I find a list of programmable properties like:

HorizontalGridLines = false;

What I am trying to do is change the color and style of my lines from the tags only, TL10 - TL99

[RobinT]

I can use Print ( DrawObjects["TL11"].DrawType.ToString() ) ;
ok,
but how do I get the other parameters from just the tag ?

RobinT,

I think what you are looking for would be under Tools > Edit NinjaScript > CustomPlotSample.

If someone could point me to posts about line drawing, I would be grateful.
